Binding: DVDEAN: 0883629115573 Format: NTSC Label: Golf Channel Manufacturer: Golf Channel Publisher: Golf Channel Release Date: November 02, 2006 Studio: Golf Channel Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Renowned golf teacher Jim McLean's The 8-Step Swing provides a lifetime's worth of golf magazine tips compressed into an 80-minute video, which is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, the video will overwhelm most golfers if they watch it in one sitting. Not only does McLean break the full golf swing into eight distinct steps, or checkpoints, but at each step he provides a wealth of tips, drills, and "death moves" (faults from which no golfer can recover). Trying to keep all these pointers in mind on the golf course would be impossible. But for the golfer with the patience to consume the video in small doses, McLean's advice can help piece together a fundamentally sound full golf swing. None of the tips here are unique or unconventional. The strength of McLean's video is in the breadth of traditional fundamentals covered. As with all golf instructional videos, The 8-Step Swing will benefit best those golfers who have a good kinesthetic sense of their body and club during the swing. Those who do not should videotape themselves to see if they are following the instruction properly. Note that McLean focuses exclusively on the full golf swing in this video and doesn't examine putting or the short game. Golfers who enjoy the video may also wish to pick up McLean's book The Eight-Step Swing: A Revolutionary Golf Technique by a Pro Coach for an easier way to look up specific tips and drills. --Eugene Wei Description: Learn from the best!

 Rating: - 8 Step SwingWhen it comes to golf, there is no such thing as too much detail. This shows you exactly what and when is supposed to happen to each part of the body, from head to toe. Also shows you dozens of examples of what commonly goes wrong in a swing that will lead to disaster. If you are an analytical, detail oriented new golfer that wants to at least understand what a good golf swing is composed of, get this. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job. Rating: - Learn from the masterOne of the best golf videos dealing with the swing. Very detailed and meant to be used in steps. Good exercises for practice. He gives you strategies to practice at the range. This video has helped my game. Rating: - Wish I had this 30 years ago(VHS) If I had this tape 30 years ago it sure would've saved me a lot of misery on the course. The most important thing this video gave me was a true 'feel' for what the golf swing was all about. After a month, my confidence was very high on the course and for a two-week period I had "it," even a hole-in-one. Then an old college football injury sidelined me. It's called the 8-step but, as Jim says in the video, you can make it a 4-step if you want. I can't recommend this tape enough. Rating: - This is all you'll need. This is all you will need to improve your golf swing. It should be your only source for golf swings. In fact, it helped me tremendously. Although other books/videos have helped, they don't teach you what to look for, avoid for or common mistakes golfers make. Keep in mind though, Jim doesn't explain his setup so if you're wondering why the ball is placed where its placed or how to grip the golf club, do some research before you watch this video. Every step has a descriptive ...

But, the following year, my swing went down hill because I did not understand my golf swing. So, I quit playing for twenty years,,,,then started playing again. Thanks to this video, I'm improving now. This video demonstrates exactly what you should be doing in the golf swing. The way that Jim McLean repeatedly shows each position,,,,,especially the 5th position, should ... Read More |
